The Nordic Playlist: The new path to Nordic music

A new online platform compiling the most influential and cutting edge music from the Nordic countries launched on 7 January 2014.

Nordic Playlist makes it easy to discover and stay updated on the best Nordic music - introduced to you by the prominent musicians, artists and music professionals of the north.

Each week, these tastemakers will compile a 10-track playlist consisting of two of their favourite tunes from all of the Nordic countries, with the results made available at www.nordicplaylist.com and promoted via licensed streaming partners, Deezer, Spotify and WiMP.

Throughout 2014 a total of 51 prominent curators will reveal playlists featuring songs from their favourite Nordic acts. The Nordic Playlist’s aim is to make it easier for any audience to explore the Nordic music scene in the hands of great guides. It is also the aim to create a closer co-operation between the Nordic territories and to show the full dimensions of Nordic creation in a united and international scope.

Anna Hildur, NOMEX programme director explains: "The Nordic region has long been recognised as a hub of musical and creative excellence. However, until now, there was no one place to check the pulse on what is happening across the Nordic region. The Nordic Playlist changes this."
